Watto, Watto... all those lessons and practice time, and you STILL can't tell the difference between a Dm and a C#m. :rolleyes:

Thanks for the input folks. I think HobbyPicker has some insight here.

There is another area of development: desire and attention. When i actually stop and watch my fingers it is amazing how out of control they can be. Flying up off the fretboard, curled up in knots, etc.

When i slow down, WAY DOWN, and pay attention and try and control them -- it get's better by degrees.

Anyway, thanks again.

I think it was a Jeff Beck quote I read somewhere once, "Sometimes the best thing I've done to improve my playing is go fishing."

Maybe it was Clapton, he comes fishing around here once in a while.
